RE: ALLEGED INVASION OF ISIKAN COMMUNITY
The palace had received a report by an online media alleging that thugs and aides of His Majesty, Oba Aladetoyinbo Ogunlade invaded a land at Ajegunle community along Aponmu axis in Akure.
It is imperative to set the record straight that such claim was totally false and did not represent the true story of what transpired.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Ajegunle community is never part of Isikan or has any affiliation with isikan as claimed.
Also, the Deji never sent any thug as the palace does not breed such or have any relationship with thugs whatsoever.
The palace got a save our soul message from the Ajegunle community leaders and residents that the Iralepo of isikan hired some miscreants to destroy their crops on the premise that he had sold the land to one developer without the knowledge of the community.
It was the people that mobilized to stop the wanton destruction of their crops before they called the Deji to call Iralepo to order from illegally taking possession of their farmland.
It was on this information that the Deji sent some palace staff to invite the developer to come and explain why he will illegally take over people’s land within his domain without going through due process.
As we speak, the police is already investigating this illegal occupant of the land and their collaborators who made a serious malicious damages to the crop and livelihood of the good people of Ajegunle community in Akure.
We believe that the police will do a thorough job and bring the company and their illegal collaborators to book.
The Palace wishes to implore all genuine developers to be wary of all these criminals who consistently engage in illegal invasion and sales of land.
All investors should carry out detailed investigation of such land to avoid falling into the hands of swindlers and fraudsters.

Chief Press Secretary to the Deji of Akure.
